Overview

About 5 Fir Tree View

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

5 Fir Tree View is a four-bedroom detached house in Methley, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 9JL). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a C (score 70). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £486,000 sits 54.8% above the 2007 sale of £314,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£182/sq ft) was about 17.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 160 m² it's 26% larger than the typical home in the postcode (127 m² median across 5 EPCs).
